This is really cool! I was wondering how much time will pass until someone puts this painfully simple idea in practice and creates one of the nicest TV stands around today. Now, the Evesham Stage Sound X1 has made it: don't go thinking it's a pocket-wrecker, because it is far from this.

The Evesham Stage Sound X1 is nothing but a piece of simple engineering and forward-thinking space ergonomics and no edge-tech has been used. It was rather the human mind, sheer creativity and simple design-concept what has made this possible.

Cutting to the subject, the Evesham Stage Sound X1 is a TV stand with an embedded theater sound system. We have been seeing speakers in TV stands since the 80's, but Evesham has made a difference: a cool sound, not the plain loudspeakers some might have expected, coming from a total of 9 speakers counting up a 270W power blast.

A 50W subwoofer, 2 20W centers, 4 30W fronts and 2 30W rears: this is where your most intense audio sensations will come while watching your favorite movie on a big-screen or flat-panel TV that the Evesham Stage Sound X1 can easily accommodate.

The surround effect is obtained by bouncing the sound off the walls; the Evesham stand has sufficient power to do so, even its clear glass panes and piano black surface could trick almost anyone into believing the contrary: the speakers behind the thin black covers would explode the instant you cranked up the volume!

If what's above ain't enough, I'll add that the system comes ready-to-blast right out of the box, with perfect connectivity to either TV, 5.1 sources, even portable media player. From 25Hz up to 20kHz, the Evesham Stage Sound X1 is controllable by means of both front panel and remote so the fun is complete. For 300GBP it is definitely the kind of furniture/gear you'd like to have in your home. Evesham is there for you!
